[抄题]:

There is a new alien language which uses the latin alphabet. However, the order among letters are unknown to you. You receive a list of non-empty words from the dictionary, where words are sorted lexicographically by the rules of this new language. Derive the order of letters in this language.

Example 1:

Input:
[
"wrt",
"wrf",
"er",
"ett",
"rftt"
] Output: "wertf"

Example 2:

Input:
[
"z",
"x"
] Output: "zx"

Example 3:

Input:
[
"z",
"x",
"z"
] Output: ""  Explanation: The order is invalid, so return "".

[奇葩corner case]:

相同的c2,只需要存一次(没有就新存 有就不存),反正如果存过 就必须退出了(返回一组即可 不用重复加)

"["za","zb","ca","cb"]" How is this test case handled. 
It should give out an empty string as the order can not be decided from the words given. but instead it returns "azbc". 回答:we can only now z-> c and a-> b
so 'azbc' is right but right result is not limited to this only one.
you can test 'zcab', 'abzc' are will all right as it is topological sort

结果字符串长度不等于度数(不是不等于单词数)

["z","z"]的度数 = 字符串长度1
正常,应该返回"z"而不是""

[思维问题]:

忘了拓扑排序用BFS怎么写了

[英文数据结构或算法,为什么不用别的数据结构或算法]:

DFS写拓扑排序似乎都很麻烦

存点到点的对应关系,用map(其中的字符必须存成包装类Character,但是循环的时候可以写char)

        //存每个点的入度
Map<char, Integer> degree = new HashMap<>();
//存c1到c2...的对应关系
Map<char, Set<char>> map = new HashMap<>();

[一句话思路]:

[输入量]:空: 正常情况:特大:特小:程序里处理到的特殊情况:异常情况(不合法不合理的输入):

[一刷]:

  1. 出现index[i + 1]时,需要提前备注把上线变为n - 1

[二刷]:

  1. BFS的时候别忘了吧把取出的c1添加到结果中去. 而且必须现有c1的key才能扩展。

[三刷]:

[四刷]:

[五刷]:

[五分钟肉眼debug的结果]:

[总结]:

c1 c2都要先判断一下有没有,再存

[复杂度]:Time complexity: O(n^2 单词数*字母数) Space complexity: O(n)

[算法思想:递归/分治/贪心]:

[关键模板化代码]:

BFS的存储和扩展是两个独立的步骤,扩展时必须先判断key是否存在,再做扩展
